Unless you're asking about the tabs vs. spaces argument. In that case,

hmm, I've been using tabs ... still, why use one key press when you can
use 4 ;-).
My editor lets me add four spaces with a single key press, and delete
them again with another single key press.
Personally, I think tabs make more sense for indents than spaces, but for
compatibility with others who are not as enlightened and insist on using
broken tools that cannot deal with tabs, I have reluctantly standardised
on spaces for indentation.
"""Thus spake the Lord: Thou shalt indent with four spaces. No more, no
less.
Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy
indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent
thou
two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out."""
